Ms Karina Garcia
Licensed Associate Professional Counselor
“I provides services for anxiety, complex trauma, and other mental health challenges. I will work with you on utilizing your resources, strengths, and skills to overcome challenges and work through setbacks. Self-growth is a continuous process. Take the first step towards a happier and healthier you!”
About Me
When life brings anxiety, complex trauma, or other mental health challenges, I offer a space to explore them. I believe in your inherent ability to navigate difficulties, and our work will focus on uncovering your unique resources, strengths, and skills. Together, we can build resilience and move through setbacks. This collaborative approach helps you cultivate continuous self-growth towards a happier, healthier you.
Approach
When difficult memories or persistent worry come up, I focus on how we move through them together—slow, steady, and guided by what feels manageable for you. In my Alexandria office or via secure online sessions in English or Spanish, we blend brief, practical skill work with gentle reprocessing so moments in-session translate to calmer days outside therapy. You'll leave with concrete tools to use between meetings and a clearer sense of your options. This approach often fits adults navigating trauma, stress, or life changes.
